I haven’t written in weeks. I’m almost certain now that my only true inspiration for writing comes from being in a state of discontent. When things just aren’t flowing right. So, if you notice my blog’s absence, it’s probably because life is actually treating me fine. 

As of late, I’ve realized how much more often I follow my heart, than, I do my, mind. I fully understand what’s best for me, but I’d rather foolishly pursue my present feelings, instead. I’m completely conscious of these decisions.. and yet…

I always imagine life would be so much easier, for everyone, if we just harbored little or no emotions, and simply abide by what makes sense. But our hearts don’t approve of logic. Or they do, but we’re just too blinded by what we feel, to realize what it is that really matters.

Self-control is the term for the week.

 

self-con·trol

Noun: The ability to control oneself, in particular one’s emotions and desires or the expression of them in one’s behavior, esp. in difficult situations.
